Take changelog verbatim from command output?

[VorpalBlade]

I use conventional commits (a format for the commit messages) and git-chglog to generate my changelogs for each release. This already spits out the exact markdown that I want in my github release. I would like to just plumb that into this action somehow.

However it seems (based on the readme) that this action only supports parsing changelogs and generating it's own output. Being able to specify either a command to generate the changelog, or a verbatim markdown file to use would be suitable options for me.

Assuming the patch is not too complicated, I'm open to accepting a patch that adds another way to get the changelog.

is there still no option to pass changelog from output?

It should already be possible to do this by calling the changelog generator and saving the output to a file before calling this action, and then specifying that path in the options of this action.

This issue is about adding a builtin way to do that.

@vendelieu I switched to using release-plz since then, so this no longer affects me personally.
